National teams’ sponsor, Globacom, has called on Nigeria’s senior national team, the Super Eagles, to work assiduously towards defeating the Swaziland national team, Sihlangu Semnikati, in Lobamba on Friday to brighten their chance to clinch the 2018 World Cup qualification ticket.

Globacom advised the team to be prepared for a tough encounter as there are no minnows in African football again, adding that the Swaziland team will be battle-ready, having recently trashed Djibouti by eight goals to one in the preliminary round.

“It is going to be a crucial encounter in which the Eagles must emerge victorious to advance to the league stage,” the telecommunications company said.

Glo commended the rebuilding process so far undertaken by the Sunday Oliseh-led technical crew with the aim of not only getting the players in shape but also assembling the best eleven capable of making Nigeria proud.

Globacom also advised the technical crew to go for the fittest and focused players who can withstand the pressure associated with away matches of this magnitude, urging the entire team to give their best and ensure that they emerge victorious in the encounter to make the second leg in Port Harcourt less cumbersome.

“The Super Eagles should make Nigerians happy and complement the victories of the Golden Eaglets in Dubai and Falconets in South Africa by going for victory in Swaziland,” the statement concluded.

Globacom is the official telecommunications partner of the Nigeria Football Federation and the major sponsor of the Nigeria national teams.
